There’s Always Time For Internet Porn!

You’ll be snuggly warm in your blanket of shame all day.
Since I work at a computer up to 14 hours a day at times, people occasionally make the mistake of thinking I know how to fix them, and then they make the additional mistake of thinking I want to do it for free. Honestly, would you ever say to your neurosurgeon friend “my brain’s completely screwed. Can you come over and operate on it tonight? We can open a nice Pinot I picked up today.” Anyway, a couple of years ago, I noticed that the same kind of person was always having problems with porn pop-ups, homepage hijacks, and viruses on their computer. Can you guess the demographic? If you guessed “MEN”, you guessed correctly. It got to the point that when people called with a problem, I’d jokingly ask them (in a total deadpan, in the middle of a bunch of dull technical questions) “Is there a male, age 13-87 in the house?” I also bought the domain AllPornedUp.com (SFW, but just a layout prototype) as a result. So it’s always amazed me – when it’s SOOOO obvious how many men look at porn daily – how many women are SHOCKED when they find it. So check out the informative video at left, it’ll leave you, as the video says “…snuggly and warm in your blanket of shame all day…”
